The Educational Team – an Alternative Solution for Romanian Secondary Education?

Summary/Abstract: In the last twenty-five years’ Romanian society sought solutions for the improvement of students` performances. Many problems were reported by diverse educational factors: students, parents, teachers, decisional factors and several solutions have been proposed. Our paper theoretically analyzes a possible solution to improve the students’ academic performance and learning understanding: the educational team approach. Traditionally, teachers work alone in every step of the didactic process: student`s assessment, planning, and implementation of the curriculum and monitoring student`s progress. Current research demonstrates that team work in education has benefits both for teachers and students. A definition of the concept is proposed and some characteristics of an efficient educational team are taken into consideration. The three main team models, multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary are critically analyzed and their benefits and disadvantages underlined. Also, possible solutions for practically implement this model in the Romanian educational context are proposed.
